WELCOME TO SPIRIT OF TAO

Our Purpose
  The Taoist arts are the root of the medical, martial and spiritual treasures of China.  Taoist principles are based on harmony between Heaven, Humanity, Earth and balanced relationship to Nature.  Through these arts you can free yourself from the modern struggle against nature and the resulting dis-ease experience.  Traditional Taoist practices originated in the Kunlun Shan mountain range in China, also known as the mountain of the immortals.

• Does your life have purpose?
• Do you have time-tested principles to guide you?
• Is your body, mind and spirit healthy?

Real Knowledge
There are many paths to develop the power of the body, mind and spirit (Choy, Tien, Sun). The unique gifts of each individual are developed fully by learning special exercises for the breath combined with standing, sitting and lying exercises both moving and non-moving.  These exercises have been successfully used for thousands of years.  You can learn to unlock your natural self-healing power to develop what Taoist's call the mysterious internal medicine that dispels all ignorances and regenerates body, mind, spirit (Neidan).

• Are you dependent on others for your health?
• Do you live in fear of nature and life itself?
• Do you hope to experience the wonders of the universe?

Learning From Nature
 Authentic oral traditions are time tested and respected for thousands of years by countless ancestors.  Many have experienced the powerful, blissful, regenerative effects of these once secret practices.  To gain a true perspective and the most knowledge possible, we recommend you learn to practice in nature.  This way you can feel the effects of practice as you learn to absorb and circulate energy and receive empowerment from the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, trees, wind, rain, thunder, lightening, animals, plants and all of creation.  Please contact us to learn how you can unlock the secrets of nature found within your own body.


Learning Experiences
All classes and retreats are taught in an informal way to allow for individual uniqueness.  Students are encouraged to ware loose comfortable clothing and flat foot ware.  We have a fun, light-hearted time or we don't train.  I look forward to showing these arts the way it has been done for thousands of years by countless Real  People (Zhen Ren).
Many Blessings,
